Environmental Economics

Narrated by Golden Globe and Academy Award winner Brad Pitt, Environmental Economics transport investigates different approaches towards solving transport issues, focusing less on the area of design and fuel alternatives and more on the larger context of human behaviour and urbanization. The biggest culprit in terms of sustainability in transport is the car. At the same time, we have entered an age in which people and goods are travelling further and more frequently than ever before. A truly global marketplace requires a globally-minded citizenry to address this environmental problem. Environmental Economics is a groundbreaking and critically acclaimed PBS series about the innovators and pioneers who envision a better quality of life on earth: socially, culturally, economically and ecologically. The series explores attainable solutions to pressing environmental and social challenges, and its stories are culled from a variety of fields including design, energy, transport, water, food and urban development. Environmental Economics is characterised by a poetic combination of compelling storytelling, provocative cinematography and an emotive original music score.
